Painting - Oil On Canvas
Description
For me “Lone Tree Struggles” symbolizes perseverance and strength in the midst of the challenges and adversity we all face in life. I began this painting by hauling my paints and easel over some rugged terrain to set up for this plein air piece, but as usual I end up adding more details in the studio. I just can't leave well enough alone.
It always amazes me to see how stubbornly the vegetation in the harsh environment of the desert landscape in southern Utah clings to life. I was enthroned with this solitary cedar tree defiantly growing out of a red rock sandstone cliff. I guess what doesn’t kill you makes you stronger? The bright blue turquoise skies with virga rain falling from a gray cloud, hints at the coming monsoon season and the promise of the rare occurrence of rain in the arid southwest desert, where water is scarce and precious.
The approach of the monsoon season with its rain and flash floods are both a blessing and a curse another reminder of the constant struggle for survival in unforgiving conditions.
The lighting on the distant mountains and red rock mesas creates a depth and atmosphere for the viewer to feel the crisp clean air of the desert where you can see for 100’s of miles.
Overall, “Lone Tree Struggles” captures the beauty, resilience, and don’t forget fragility of the desert ecosystem, inviting you to contemplate and protect the delicate balance between nature’s strength and vulnerability in the face of environmental challenges.
